Week 41, Our Favorites!

Architectural Photography is not something I'm naturally attracted to. This week's project forced me to give it a shot, and guess what? I really had a great time. It was a lot of fun for me to look through our pool of photographs this week. I especially love when you map your photographs, because this week we really got to see the world, all over our America, some Canada, some Austrailia, some Rome, and even some China. What a fun trip it was to see Architecture through your eyes! You guys really did a fantastic job.
There is a link to each artist below the photograph, if you enjoy the art, check out the artist and send them some love. Everyone could use a little encouragement and your words could make all the difference to someone who struggled a little this week.
Now, with only 11 weeks more to go in 2011, here's our top Ten...as always in no particular order!

And now on to Ellenburg Photography's featured entry of the week. This is a photograph of a stained glass skylight that looks into a prayer room on the second floor of a Mobile Alabama church Built in the early 1800's.

I went here to shoot the gorgeous red doors and was fortunate enough to be invited inside for a private tour. You can read about this adventure on our blog at: 41/52 Architecture Adventures - And yes, I did have to lay on the floor of a historic church for this great shot. Also, many thanks to the kind ladies at the MCP Project 52 for featuring our fun photograph this week. It was an honor to be surrounded by such an amazing top ten selection.

Week 42's MCP Project 52 theme is "True Beauty" - this leaves the door wide open for our pool of creative photographers. What's beautiful to you? Flowers? Sunset? Babies? New Love? As a photographer, it's easy to find true beauty in something everyday. Today, for me, True Beauty is my new build in side by side Fridge & Freezer...



I said, "Hooray! Can we turn it on?"
"No, Not yet." :-(

Until next week, wishing you a great week filled with Family, Fun & Photography. Happy Snapping!
